Draft Genome Sequence of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterium Bacillus subtilis SR1, Which Has Plant Growth-Promoting Attributes.

ABSTRACT: Bacillus subtilis SR1 is a heavy metal-resistant, polyaromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium isolated from rhizospheric soil of contaminated sites. It has the ability to promote plant growth and utilize benzo[a]pyrene as a carbon source. This study reports the characteristics of the genome of B. subtilis SR1, which contains one circular chromosome (4,093,698 bp).
